Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged on the reverse to the backing board at the top two corners. There are artist's pinholes in all 4 corners. There is light wear to the extreme edges and a few very light scuff marks in the black pigment area. The edges of the sheet undulate slightly due to the artist's choice of medium. Framed under glass.
